Ah, thanks. Sine Mora 66% off, hmm... EDIT: Is this a difficult game? I don't mind shmups, but "bullet hell" ones tend to be a bit much for me.
I am officially blind. Thanks a lot, been looking for such a link for a long time. I mean, I know there's a specials list among the top selling stuff lists but I wanted the option to sort by price.

I played a ton of two player split screen with two controllers....
I am not super good at shmup games but this one was quite easy. Even on hardest mode

Good price on Sine Mora.

Everyone should buy Hell Yeah, it's 75% off and $3.74.
About time the DLC went on sale, too.
Wish Mark of the Ninja was 50% off again, regret not picking that up
MotN is well worth $10. You may be paying $2.50 more than you would have just the other week, but it's $2.50 the devs deserve.

Glad I waited for Hell Yeah, so fucking bought for $3.74
Cool, I'm in the middle of episode 4. I don't like it as much as Episode 3 so far but it's still really good.

Castle Crashers DLC is still full-price. Et tu, Behemoth?

Dream, which was greenlit, will be released in September 2014 for about 9 pounds. There is a kickstarter after the greenlight.

Hmm best way to describe the combat/gameplay is that it's simple, you have a melee attack and you have various guns to use to kill enemies. The combat isn't very deep I feel but it's fun killing dozens of Orks.
Does anyone have any information about how/why Karateka bypassed Greenlight? I think it would be interesting and helpful to indie developers reading this, if so.
Also, I personally welcome posts from developers about their game progress and Greenlight details, since it's interesting, informational, and benefits other developers both current and future.
It's a buck. To help you a little more, here's the review I see on the game's product page:

I am preparing my backlog two years ahead: I don't know why but I backed it...

Do you know who Jordan Mechner is?Does anyone have any information about how/why Karateka bypassed Greenlight? I think it would be interesting and helpful to indie developers reading this, if so.

When the whole thing first started, there were hundreds of games being submitted all at once, and they weren't required to fill in info about expected release timeframe. I think a lot of stuff slipped through the cracks because of the lack of scrutiny. Hopefully it starts to improve once Greenlight gets the initial wave of submissions like that "out of its system" so to speak.

It might have just been submitted before the change.

Has someone tried Rocketbirds: Hardboiled Chicken? How does it compare to Shank or Mark of the Ninja?
That doesn't necessarily answer the question -- yes I like the original 2D Prince of Persia game(s), but Kareteka was the first game the guy made. Is it a remake? Is there a publisher associated? Is he self-publishing it because he retained the rights? Have certain developers gotten independently submitted games through because they are well known (a route Molyneux could use, for instance)?
Those are the sorts of things I'm curious about. I know that some people have connections, as Feep has mentioned, and some people have community support, like the recent fast-tracked existing multiplayer game on Greenlight. I think it's neat to get more information about what, and why, out for everyone to read.
This could also be true.
I'm really enjoying it. It helps that it's spectacular in 3D, but I just really like the story. It's like Batman is played by David Puddy from Seinfeld. Not a big fan of all the melodramatic comic book stories, so I love how it just mocks that universe.
It's easy though. But I'd guess people know that going into a Lego game.
2ND EDIT: Didn't realize it was 66 percent off. Was 75 percent off during the BF sale.
EDIT: Didn't realize Hell Yeah was on sale since I'd removed it from the wishlist. Should probably pick it up.

listen to the mad man
It's a remake, it's independent, no publisher, he retained the rights.
The money goes to charity and it's only a dollar. Will never be on sale.
Thanks, much appreciated. I didn't read far enough on wikipedia, clearly. It's interesting how the old version almost resembled Prince of Persia in some ways. I don't know that I'd even heard of it much before.

So when can I access BPM? I'm in the UK btw.
Is there a way to add wallet funds without the client?
Edit: nvm found it...not the most intuitive place to put the link for it...

Great, now I can go back to PixelVision without having to opt in the beta.
The stable client update just rolled out. You may have to restart Steam if the client isn't detecting it.

Wanderlust Rebirth has been on my wishlist for a while now, has anyone played it and want to provide some impressions of it? I'd also probably only play it as a single player game too, so would it still be worth playing?
Restart Steam then click the BPM logo in the top right of the client
